Unforgettable trip with a brilliant guide - We went on a 4 night Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan on MS Mayfair and we had an absolutely amazing trip. The boat is beautiful and the staff were fantastic, everyone was super friendly and the service was top notch, exactly what you'd expect (if not better!) from such a superb boat. Everything was spotlessly clean, the rooms and common areas were gorgeous and the sun deck was spacious with lots of little cabanas/sun beds.
Throughout the trip we had a private guide (Mohammed from Aswan) and he was fantastic. He's got many years of experience as a guide, he's a trained Egyptologist and ancient Egypt is his passion and you can see that. He's a wealth of knowledge and he was patient explaining for the 5th time which pharaoh/god was which. :) Mohammed organised the taxis/transports from the boat to each of the sites and they say everything went super smoothly. There are a lot of people who are trying to sell you things especially at the touristy sites and Mohammed treated them all with dignity and respect while keeping us comfortable, which was really nice.
We loved all the temples and we're still in awe how old, incredibly detailed and impressive they all were. The big daddy of all, Abu Simbel, was breathtaking and absolutely worth the 3hr drive there.
Overall, excellent experience organised by a professional company and a brilliant guide!

Idyllic cruise on the Nile Bride, in the company of Rajab - We had an idyllic family stay on the Nile Bride, a cruise from Luxor to Aswan thanks to Egypt Unlimited. Beautiful boat, magnificent, clean and large cabins overlooking the Nile, double bed and single beds for children, large bathroom where nothing was missing, little attentions from the crew every day and kitchen (buffet or meals served at the table) very (too!) plentiful and excellent (well done to the chef!). The staff were very friendly and the manager lovely. Small swimming pool on the top of the boat, ideal for children. We were lucky enough to make the trip with only 10 people on the boat, the dream in terms of tranquility... As for the visits, they were perfect. Our guide Rajab is a great connoisseur of Egypt, passionate about history and fascinating. It was a pleasure to have him by our side as a private guide during this stay. We recommend this cruise with our eyes closed (just remember to ask for the bottles of water normally provided each day during the visits), thank you very much to Rajab and the entire Nile Bride team for this incredible stay (memory of a lifetime! ). We come back conquered by Egypt and the kindness of its inhabitants.

Well Worth Taking this Cruise - Everything in the description of this tour came true and delivered as promised with excellent communication. That alone put this tour among our best experiences.
Private tour is the way to go. Our guide for the whole trip, Ahmed Salama was a true pro and I really liked the way he worked with the two of us to understand what was important to us to experience while setting up each day for us to maximize our Egyptian experience. Very knowledgeable, friendly, and accessible. Highly recommend him personally.
The ship crew would bend over backwards to help and all our asks were met. Final day you have the option to add a day-trip and although we were unable to do the Abu Simbel trip, he chartered a boat for us on the Nile and visited the Nubian villages which was a great, fun and relaxing way to end our journey.
Egypt overall was such a great trip I will be back next time with my kids and will again use Egypt Unlimited and Ahmed Salama. Thank you for making those memories for me and my Father.

Amazing Trip on the Nile on the Kemet - The Nile River cruise on the Kemet was the highlight of an amazing two weeks that we spent in Egypt. The dahabiya is gorgeous – whoever decorated has great taste. The staff were welcoming and attentive to whatever we needed to feel comfortable. The rooms were large and comfortable and there were plenty of common areas to hang out in and relax. There was a good mix of departing the boat to tour temples or villages and also time gliding along the Nile watching the sunset.
I want to give a special “shout out” to the chef and staff. My husband and I requested vegan meals, and the chef exceeded our expectations on what he could create. Not only delicious regular meals, but also baking sweets for tea-time and desserts. The vegan food was so good that the other guests on the boat also ate it and were amazed. The food came “in waves” for each meal – there was so much food!
We plan on visiting Egypt again and bringing our daughters. A cruise on the Kemet will be the cornerstone of the next trip.

A last minute adventure created golden lifelong memories! - What an ideal tour this is. We booked this holiday on a whim at a few days notice when my wife and I realised we had a free week.
You really get to tour a collection of Egypt’s major sights in just a handful of days in 1st class comfort. The mornings are packed with wonders and culture and the afternoons are spent lounging in the comfort of the boat, eating fantastic meals and soaking up the sights and sleep in the sun of the lovely deck.
None of the Nile boats are stunning from the outside but onboard they’re great.
Mustapha our guide was knowledgeable & friendly & helped us to get the most from our trip - tailoring our adventure to our needs. We added a sunrise balloon ride over Luxor that was utterly magical!

The Alhambra boat is clean, the food good and the staff very pleasant. These rooms are spacious suites with whirlpool bathtubs.

Memorable experience - We embarked on our Nile Cruise punctually, and our experience with our tour guide, Ahmed, was positive.
As we delved into the wonders of Egypt's ancient legacy, including monumental temples, Ahmed consistently provided insightful introductions to each site, offering in-depth information before allowing us ample time to explore independently and capture memorable photos.
Our vessel, the Carnival, proved to be well-equipped and responsive to our needs. The diverse selection of food exceeded our expectations, and the staff exhibited unwavering attentiveness and friendliness throughout the journey.
In conclusion, we wholeheartedly recommend this Nile Cruise experience. It not only provided us with a fascinating exploration of Egypt's rich history but also ensured our comfort and satisfaction with the service from the Carnival crew and Ahmed, our knowledgeable guide.

Expert guide makes for unforgettable experience - A Nile river cruise should be on everyone's bucket list. It is an experience that will stay with us for the rest of our lives. Thanks to our highly knowledgeable and competent guide Sayed, we had an unforgettable time. His wealth of knowledge on the history of Egypt unlocked the wonders of this ancient nation and made it come alive. For a personalised and tailormade programme of excursions, Sayed is your man. We will certainly insist on having him as our guide on our next visit to Egypt.

Excellent Guide from Aswan to Luxor. - Perhaps a little disappointing that we did not get the boat that we had booked in advance, but the old boat that we had was OK, and the crew friendly and nice. We advice others to have something to eat before arriving by air from Cairo in the morning, because you are taken directly to a several hours tour in Aswan and don't get anything but water before late lunch when you arrive at the boat in the afternoon. Otherwise everything was very good, like a dream to sail on the Nile, on a nice ship with good food and drinks. And, our guide, Mohammad, took excellent care of us from the very beginning to the end. He spoke good English (even though at times a little fast), and is very knowledgeable about ancient history and everything that was to see at all the temples and the graves that we saw. And, at the end of the tour, he arranged for a car at a reasonable price to bring us to our next destination at the Red Sea. We don't know about the other Guides, but Mohammad was excellent.
